In Almost All Technical Institutions Of Learning, The Laboratory Work In Any Subject Runs Concurrently With The Course In Theory Of The Subject. Consequently, The Students Perform The Laboratory Work Mechanically Without Intellectual Involvement In The Work. It Is, Therefore, Necessary That The Students, Before Conducting The Experimental Work, Are Familiarized With Elementary Theoretical And Other Aspects Relevant To The Experimental Work. This Book Is An Attempt To Serve This Objective For The Subject Of Hydraulic Engineering.The Contents Of The Book Include Description Of Basic Facilities In Hydraulic Engineering Laboratory, Elementary Terms Of Fluid Mechanics, Fundamental Equations Governing The Fluid Motion, Introduction To Open Channel Flow, A Note On Writing Laboratory Reports, And Instructional Description Of Several Experiments Including Those On Basic Hydraulic Engineering (Or Fluid Mechanics), Pipe Flow, Open Channel Flow, Boundary Layers, And Hydraulic Structures.Instructional Description Of Each Experiment Includes The Object (S), Brief Theoretical Background, Description Of One Typical Set-Up For The Experiment, Procedure For Conducting The Experiment And Carrying Out Computations. The Required Graph Sheets Have Also Been Provided In Order To Make The Book Self-Contained.

Fluid Power: Hydraulics and Pneumaticsis a teaching package aimed at students pursuing a technician-level career path. It teaches the fundamentals of fluid power and provides details on the design and operation of hydraulic and pneumatic components, circuits, and systems. Extensive coverage is provided for both hydraulic and pneumatic systems. This book does not contain engineering calculations that will confuse students. Instead, it applies math skills to the formulas needed by the technician-level student. · Full-color illustrations throughout the text. · Each chapter includes detailed Internet resources related to the chapter topics to allow further exploration. · Laboratory manual contains activities correlated to the chapter topic, and chapter quizzes to measure student knowledge. Bundled with the textbook is the student version of FluidSIM® Hydraulics simulation software. This popular software from Festo Didactic allows circuits to be designed and simulated on the computer. The software can be used to provide additional activities of your own design.

Hydraulic engineering of dams and their appurtenant structures counts among the essential tasks to successfully design safe water-retaining reservoirs for hydroelectric power generation, flood retention, and irrigation and water supply demands. In view of climate change, especially dams and reservoirs, among other water infrastructure, will and have to play an even more important role than in the past as part of necessary mitigation and adaptation measures to satisfy vital needs in water supply, renewable energy and food worldwide as expressed in the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. This book deals with the major hydraulic aspects of dam engineering considering recent developments in research and construction, namely overflow, conveyance and dissipations structures of spillways, river diversion facilities during construction, bottom and low-level outlets as well as intake structures. Furthermore, the book covers reservoir sedimentation, impulse waves and dambreak waves, which are relevant topics in view of sustainable and safe operation of reservoirs. The book is richly illustrated with photographs, highlighting the various appurtenant structures of dams addressed in the book chapters, as well as figures and diagrams showing important relations among the governing parameters of a certain phenomenon. An extensive literature review along with an updated bibliography complete this book.

This is the second volume of a two-volume guide to designing, conducting and interpreting laboratory and field experiments in a broad range of topics associated with hydraulic engineering. Specific guidance is provided on methods and instruments currently used in experimental hydraulics, with emphasis on new and emerging measurement technologies and methods of analysis. Additionally, this book offers a concise outline of essential background theory, underscoring the intrinsic connection between theory and experiments. This book is much needed, as experimental hydraulicians have had to refer to guidance scattered in scientific papers or specialized monographs on essential aspects of laboratory and fieldwork practice. The book is the result of the first substantial effort in the community of hydraulic engineering to describe in one place all the components of experimental hydraulics. Included is the work of a team of more than 45 professional experimentalists, who explore innovative approaches to the vast array of experiments of differing complexity encountered by today’s hydraulic engineer, from laboratory to field, from simple but well-conceived to complex and well-instrumented. The style of this book is intentionally succinct, making frequent use of convenient summaries, tables and examples to present information. All researchers, practitioners, and students conducting or evaluating experiments in hydraulics will find this book useful.
